Roxanne was a little worried that Estella would be unhappy that Lucian wasn’t around to dine with them.

To her surprise, however, Estella was smiling happily as she munched away on her food. It was as though she didn’t even mind if Lucian was there.

Roxanne felt her heart ache when she saw that.

Is Lucian really so busy that he barely has time to spend with his daughter? That probably explains why Estella is recovering so slowly...

Roxanne was about to bring the kids back upstairs after dinner when Catalina entered the living room and said, “Mr. Farwell is waiting for you in the back garden, Ms. Jarvis.” Having witnessed the incident earlier that afternoon, Catalina was tempted to address Roxanne as “Mrs. Farwell.” However, she chose not to, as she figured it would make her uncomfortable.

Roxanne paused and stared at the kids after hearing that.

What does Lucian want to see me for? Would it be convenient to bring the kids with me? “We want to go too, Mommy!” Benny exclaimed while tugging at Roxanne’s arm.

Estella chimed in as well, “| want to go too, Aunt Roxanne!” Archie simply stood there without saying a word, but the look in his eyes gave his intention away.

Unable to bring herself to say no to them, Roxanne asked Catalina, “He didn’t say anything about bringing the kids along, right?” Catalina shook her head after giving it some thought and stepped aside to make way for them.

Roxanne then held Benny's and Estella’s hands while Archie walked to the front.

The four of them walked out of the mansion and made their way toward the back garden.

Roxanne frowned in confusion when she saw that the place was in total darkness.

Huh? Didn't Lucian say he was waiting here for me? “Lucian?” she called out to him.

A second later, the entire garden was illuminated by a light that gradually grew brighter.

Roxanne’s eyes went wide with surprise when she saw the traditional medicine in the back garden.

Noble dendrobium, jasmine, golden-and-silver honeysuckle...

Roxanne could name almost every plant in the back garden. She also knew that they weren't worth a lot of money, but they were essential ingredients in traditional medicine.

The fact that such plants were found in the back garden of the Farwell residence came as a huge surprise for her.

What is Lucian playing at? “This garden used to be filled with expensive roses and peonies, but you didn’t like them. After giving it some thought, | decided to have someone replace them all with plants related to traditional medicine instead,” Lucian said.

Roxanne glanced in the direction of his voice and saw him walking along a tiny path as he made his way toward her.

For some reason, Roxanne felt exceptionally nervous when she saw him approaching. She even thought about turning around and running off.

As though the kids had read her mind, they grabbed hold of her arms and held her in place.

All Roxanne could do was watch as Lucian walked right up to her.

He stared affectionately into her eyes as he said, “I caused you a lot of suffering six years ago because | failed to acknowledge my true feelings for you. After you left me, | realized | couldn't live without you.” He kept his gaze fixated on Roxanne as he retrieved the ring from his back pocket and slowly knelt before her.

“I know | rushed things a little too much lately, which caused you a lot of problems as a result. Would you be willing to give me another chance by marrying me again?”
